In their words

Today we are all challenged in finding young talent, who have authored voices. “In Development” is a great opportunity to discover them. Same goes for young producers, I find it exciting to meet young talented producers and I’m sure that “In Development” will give me that opportunity, too.

Rola Bauer,Producer

As the world of television becomes more and more international, the opportunity to collaborate across borders is really exciting. But it isn't easy to connect in person. "In Development" will be a great chance for creatives from around the world to meet and share ideas face to face.
